Immunological lessons from genome-wide association studies of infections.

Current opinion in immunology - 1 Oct 2021

Thorball Christian W, Fellay Jacques, Borghesi Alessandro

Abstract excerpt

Over the past few years, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been increasingly applied to identify host genetic factors influencing clinical and laboratory traits related to immunity and infection, and to understand the interplay between the host and the microbial genomes. By screening large cohorts of individuals suffering from various infectious diseases, GWAS explored resistance against infection,...
